14 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

2

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the assigned battery usage for each operational phase is based on a priority of the respective operational phase.

3

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the assigned battery usage for each operational phase is based on needed functionality of the adhesive tape platform for the respective operational phase.

4

4. The method of claim 1, further comprising dynamically adjusting the respective configuration for each operational phase based on a comparison between a predicted battery level remaining and a determined battery level remaining.

5

5. The method of claim 1, further comprising draining remaining battery power at the end of the last one of the operational phases.

6

6. The method of claim 1, further comprising controlling a battery activation circuit of the adhesive tape platform to activate the battery of the adhesive tape platform in response to a wireless signal.

8

8. The method of claim 7, wherein the end-of-life event comprises determining that the sensor data indicates a predefined movement of the adhesive tape platform.

9

9. The method of claim 8, wherein the predefined movement corresponds to a user action of shaking the adhesive tape platform.

10

10. The method of claim 7, wherein the action to drain remaining energy stored in the battery comprises controlling the adhesive tape platform to increase power consumption by activating one or more functions of the adhesive tape platform at an increased rate.

11

11. The method of claim 7, wherein the action to drain remaining energy stored in the battery comprises activating one or more internal circuits of the adhesive tape platform to increase battery drain.

13

13. The method of claim 7, wherein the action to drain remaining energy stored in the battery comprises one or more of activating a wireless receiver of the adhesive tape platform, repeatedly or continuously transmitting a wireless signal from the adhesive tape platform, connecting the adhesive tape platform to a cellular network, increasing usage of a processor of the adhesive tape platform, and performing sensor readings from a sensor of the adhesive tape platform.

15

15. The method of claim 14, further comprising determining a location of the adhesive tape platform, wherein the end-of-life event corresponds to the determined location being the same as a predetermined destination of the adhesive tape platform.

16

16. The method of claim 15, wherein the determining the location of the adhesive tape platform is based on wireless communications with wireless nodes of a tracking system.

17

17. The method of claim 14, wherein the adhesive tape platform is disposed of after the adhesive tape platform performs the action to drain remaining energy stored in the battery.

19

19. The method of claim 14, wherein the detecting the end-of-life event is based on sensor data collected using one or more sensors of the adhesive tape platform.
